    Surprised they didn't go lefty against Fielder, but very happy with the result.

    Another scoreless inning for Harris.

    While I'm obviously happy he's getting good results, a 2.52 FIP differential and a .130 BABIP don't scream sustainability.

    But XFIP is still around 3 so it isn't like he's pitching poorly and getting lucky. He's pitching good and getting some luck.

    His HR/FB is high to help offset the BABIP some.

    Neshek is spotty vs. lefties... if Qualls is healthy, yes I just went there.

    Tucker really showcasing his "vertical" this inning.

    Has anyone ever seen Pat Neshek and Rocketman95 in the same room?

    Where he'd have even more opportunities to showcase bad defense.

    There's a guy here with maybe the coolest old man shirt I've ever seen.

    Looked promising early, but the hitting is falling back into that pre-break slump looks like.

    His era is almost 1/3 of his XFIP... He has gotten a lot of luck. Having said that no he hasn't be bad even with luck figured in.

    Nah... just not a lot of versatility in the lineup right now with Springer hurt (other than Correa).

    They have lefty batters who are hapless against lefties... they have free swingers... and they have strikeout machines.

    They all happen to get on a run at the same time... or they all slump.

    All I know is that Fielder is almost out hitting both our first baseman combined...
